When I Grow Up Lyrics - Fever Ray - Fever Ray

When I grow up 

I want to be a forester 

Run through the moss on high heels 

That's what I'll do 

Throwing out a boomerang 

Waiting for it to come back to me 

When I grow up 

I want to live near the sea 

Crab claws and bottles of rum 

That's what I'll have 

Staring at a seashell 

Waiting for it to embrace me

I put my soul into what I do 

Last night I drew a funny man 

With dog eyes and a hanging tongue 

It goes way back 

I never like that sad look 

From someone who wants to be loved by you 

I'm very good with plants 

When my friends are away 

They let me keep the soil moist 

On the seventh day I rest 

For a minute or two 

Then back on my feet to call for you 

Photos 

You've got cucumbers on your eyes 

Too much time spent on nothing 

Waiting for a moment to arise 

The face in the ceiling 

And arms too long 

I'm waiting for him to catch me 

Waiting for it to embrace me oh
